Subject: Eternal Rest of the Fickle - Kenjiblade

Hello everyone, I'm here to talk about a good combo that is easier to pull 
off than you think.  It involves using Eternal Rest to kill off monsters 
with Equip Magic on them, but using Tailor of the Fickle as well, to give 
you more control when using the card.  "But my opponent never uses Equip 
Magic!" you say?  The simple solution of course:Use Equip Magic of your 
own!  Also, you might think that placing Equipment Magic on your opponent's 
monster is disadvantageous, but it combos very well anyway.  It might not 
seem much like it, but the use of these 2 cards equates to having some 
control and eventually it gives you the advantage in a duel.
       For example, let's say you have Change of Heart, Eternal Rest and 
Malevolent Nuzzler (Axe of Despair if you have it) in hand, with Tailor of 
the Fickle set.  If your opponent only has 1 monster, then you can use CoH 
to control it for the turn, attach the Nuzzler (or Axe of Despair) to it, 
enter Battle Phase to deal damage to your opponent (unless they 
Waboku/Kuriboh that damage), and top it off by playing Eternal Rest during 
Main Phase 2, killing off their monster that would've otherwise been 
returned to them on their turn.
       Have a problem with your own monster(s) having an Equip Magic on 
them and not wanting them to die as well?  Then just use Tailor of the 
Fickle to direct the Equip card to the opponent's monster first.  That's 
another thing to address, if you're using a deck that has the Eternal 
Rest+Tailor of the Fickle tech in it.  Never, ever use more than 1 Equip
card on any particular monster unless you're positive you won't regret it 
later.  This insures that if the moment calls for it, and you wanna kill 
off some monsters, you can save a particular Equipped monster from death by 
using only 1 of your Tailor of the Fickle, rather than 2 or 3.  Snatch 
Steal has brilliant synergy with Eternal Rest, since Snatch Steal itself is 
an Equip card.  Simply steal their creature, attack, then Eternal Rest at 
Main Phase 2, and bam, no 1000 LP gain for them at all!
        I digress...Tailor of the Fickle and Eternal Rest are by no means a 
perfect combo (last I checked, there was no such thing), and it of course 
has its flaws, such as its uncanny ability to be blocked by Magic Jammer 
(pack some Seven Tools of the Bandit if you think you'll need 'em).  Not to 
mention also that since this monster removal is dependant on 2 cards, it's 
a stretch to say that you'll always have the option available to you 
(though, with 3 of both cards, it shouldn't be too hard to get both at some 
point).
Just remember, use your imagination to think up other ways to use & abuse 
these 2 cards, as well as any other cards that are available to you.  Don't 
forget, every card is situational to a certain extent; no card is perfect.
